Nick Grimshaw will surely be wanting to mentor the winner on his first year judging the X Factor.

And to do so he'll have to make sure that The Boys are the strongest category in the competition.

Grimmy will be vetting the six hopefuls along with the help of producer Mark Ronson in the Cotswolds during Judges' Houses.

But before then, let's meet The Boys:

Ben Clark

Ben Clark has dreams of going from a night time receptionist to a chart-topping singer.

He's so far been on the right track, wowing in his first audition with a rendition of Here Without You by 3 Doors Down.

At 25, the Coventry-based hopeful is the oldest in his category and believes his huskier voice may help him topple the other lads.

When asked what makes him stand out, he said: "I think the talent this year is incredible. I do think that I’m different in terms of my voice to the rest of the people in the competition as there are some really talented powerful singers, but I feel like mine has a huskier, rocky tone."

Che Chesterman is the youngest in his category - but he doesn't lack confidence.

Speaking on live TV, he boasted: "Yeah, yeah... I want to win. I think I'm going to win."

The Langdon-based hopeful will no doubt want to back-up his claim so that he doesn't have to go back to work as a shelf stacker.

When asked what makes him stand out, he said: "I think I’ve got a very different style of music to the others in the category. I like soul and Motown. I don’t think there are many people my age who like that sort of music, I’m old school."

In five years time, he wants to be 'rich'.

Josh Daniel

Josh Daniel's claim to fame is that he managed to make Simon Cowell cry during his first audition.

Now the hopeful, a mechanic from Billingham, will want to keep that momentum going as he eyes up a spot on the live shows.

When asked what makes him stand out, he said: "This year is good as everyone in the final six is in their own lane. One of my worries coming in to the competition was that there were going to be the same type of singers singing the same type of songs. I’m enjoying the fact everyone is different this year."

Josh is hoping his voice can carry him through or else he'd regret the whole experience.

He explained: "To exit the competition now would be even harder than if I have never done it all."

Seann Miley Moore

Seann Miley Moore has become just as known for his fashion sense as his voice.

Completing his first audition in a PVC skirt and fur coat, the Australian has been on a roll ever since.

Asked how he'd describe his style, he said: "It’s about feeling fabulous and sexy, as well as confident and comfortable in your own skin. I base my style around Carrie Bradshaw, randomly running on the street."

In five years time he sees himself 'performing, entertaining and inspiring'.

Simon Lynch

Simon Lynch has quickly built a reputation for stripping down songs.

The 22-year-old first did so when he sang If I Were A Boy by Beyonce in his audition, before later doing it again in the Six Chair Challenge.

Marketing man Simon, from the Isle Of Man, believes it's this ability that will make him stand out in the category.

He explained: "I think about songs differently. I like to deconstruct them as I did for the Six Chair Challenge where I took a song, broke it down and built it back up in to the song I wanted. I’m also really visual and have some really cool things planned for the lives that don’t come across in the stripped back auditions."

He lists his inspiration as former American Idol contestant Adam Lambert .

Mason Noise

Mason Noise has already had one of the rockiest X Factor journeys in history.

Because not only did the 22-year-old clash with Simon Cowell - and get called an 'a***hole' in the process - but he was also sent packing.
